When powering on, I am presented with an awful coil whine from the machine and a blank display (with backlight turned on). I've attempted disconnecting the battery and resetting using the switch on the device but to no avail! The whine seems to stop when I disconnect the display though! Any suggestions? Really disappointed that an otherwise brilliant machine seems dead to the world now!
For reference, this is the sound...

I'm in the same boat... less than a week in, black screen, whine, no output.
I noticed that the keyboard caps lock was working so I went ahead and connected a serial console, which shows my OS booting, to a broken boot because of my fault (bad fstab entry which I'm 99.9% sure is unrelated) but I can't interact either by serial or direct, not sure why, but looks like the GPU is broken to me
